This website has posts from various “Bitter Waitresses” who served celebs. Funny stuff. Some of these are funny, some make you go, “Wow, what a nice guy/gal.”
If you aren’t into gossip type things, I wouldn’t read this.
Some highlights-
Falwell
I was working one of my first nights at the most expensive steakhouse in Lynchburg, Virginia when in walks Jerry Falwell, the evangelist. He told one of the busboys that he should cut his hair and when the whole restaurant was singing happy birthday to a little girl he was the only one not moving. Also a shitty tipper. You would think all those old ladies’ life savings he’s stolen would be spread around at least a little bit. Maybe 12%.
Bill Gates
About 2 years ago I was up from Seattle bartending at a very classy upper end Italian Restaurant in downtown Vancouver. Bill Gates and his wife brought about 15 people in for dinner. I think they were celebrating the future wedding of one of their guests (from what I heard). After about 3 hours of service, 8 bottles of wine, and 6 bottles of $1300.00 a pop champagne he racked up alittle over a $12000.00 bill. It was crazy, but he can afford it!! He left an $8000.00 tip. IT WAS INSANE…after dividing it up between all of us (roughly $890.00 a piece), I could have skipped out of work for 2 weeks. By far the BEST tipper and overall nicest couple ever. THANKS AGAIN BILL, YOU ROCK!!!
Jennifer Aniston
I had just started my shift around 5pm and I was waiting on this one family when I saw Jennifer Aniston came in the restaurant with a man. I went to the hostes and I asked her if she could sit Jennifer at one of my tables, because my daughter loves her and i thought that maybe I could ask her for an autograph. So the hostes did what I asked her to, and i was really friendly and ofcourse attentive. So after the two were done eaing, Jennifer asked me for the bill and before I went to get it I asked her if she could please sign a piece of paper for my daughter and she just grabbed the paper and pen that i held out for her out of my hands withou repling. So when went back to the table to give her the bill she still hadn’t signed it so I left it there for her to do. When I saw them leaving I went back to the table and I saw that she had drew a wierd looking cartoon on the paper! on top of that she only left me $3.57 on a $58.39 bill!
Vince Vaughn
VERY NICE!!! Was in town for something, who knows, and I waited on him. Very nice tipper, very nice man. I saw him about an hour after I left work at a locals bar and he bought me shots and drinks for my friends and I. We ran out of monay drinking with him, so he loaned me $20. I went home, got money and went back out. I tried to re-pay him but he refused. He was very good-looking and tall in person. Would love to wait on him again or go out drinking with him again.
Cameron Diaz
I work in an upscale restaurant in Hollywood that is a famed place for a lot of celebrities to eat. Of course, we get the regular assholes, but we also get a lot of really nice people. However, the person I hated waiting on the most was Cameron Diaz. She came in looking all ratty, no make-up (which someone with her skin should just not attempt. I think the moon may have less craters), and her hair was all skanky. I was very polite, did my job well, but will admit I did not go out of my way to fawn over her. Apparently she didn’t like that too much because she was very snotty the whole evening and left me $6.00 for a $98 check. Bitch!
Tara Reid
Last Super Bowl, Tara Ried came into the Starbucks where I use to work. She was as drunk as a skunk and hanging out with four or five slutty girls wearing next to nothing. She asked if we could blend her a drink and add a few splashes of vokda (which she pulled out of her fake Fendi purse…eww). I told her we werent a bar and there were no margaritas on our menu and she lunged over the counter screaming “DONT YOU KNOW WHO THE FUCK I AM!!!” I told her that I knew who she was and still could not help her. She then did the most horribly embarassing thing I could imagine. She turned to a male co worker of mine, lifted up her skanky tank top and said “ARE MY TITS BETTER AT CONVINCING YOU!!!”
I know that if Tara Reid flashed me , I’d run away shreiking in pain, scrubbing at my eyeballs.
Great site!
It’s too bad my sister is afeared of the internet – she has my favourite “bitter waitress” anecdote:
Years ago, she worked at Umberto’s, which is one of the nicer little places in Vancouver. Lots of famous faces get filled there. The only one I remember, though, is Bryan Adams. Two things stand out: He always brought his own margarine, and insisted that all recipes that called for butter use margarine in place.
The other thing pretty much defines my perception of Bryan Adams: He asked (apropos of nothing) if my sister wanted his autograph. :rolleyes:
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band came into the truck stop where I used to work one night with a big pile of 8x10 autographed b&w glossies and started handing them out to all and sundry.
I politely took one when it was handed to me, but I had to ask the janitor who the hell they were, because I’d never heard of them.
I didn’t work in the restaurant area, so I’ve no idea what kind of customers they were. They were nice to me, FWIW.

What a great site! When I bookmarked it, the name came up as “kiss my bitter ass.”
I’ve already entered three stories!
